Common Core Tests

I was at a meeting and was perplexed about the idea of not sharing and coordinating county tests for the new Common Core Standards. I feel like the trend is to make the curriculum more similar across the country for students. When we aren't using the same tests county-wide this seems strange to me. Teachers are spending a lot of time making tests on their own. Here are some great tests….

I like these tests because they are challenging, standards-based, and require higher order thinking.
